Whacked Out News: Mall Social Experiment Shows Little to No Hope for Humankind. [VIDEO]

For anyone that keeps a tab on the latest headlines, you are already aware of the depressing state the world is in. Morons are abdundant and reproducing at an alarming rate. We live in a world where a state of emergency can be called, not for a terrorist attack, not for a bomb threat or nuclear holocaust but for Justin Bieber riding around in a bus! Of course, this is not new at all. Idiotic fan mobs have existed since the infant days of radio and television. They went bonkers for Elvis and Michael Jackson forgetting the fact that they were human beings, just like them. They took dumps, they had flaws, they slept and ate and did tons of things other than entertain. But that didn't stop them from attempting to create a stampede for a chance to publicly rape them and other popular celebrities. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Now people are going loco for a prepubescent boy that dresses and looks like a girl.

Actually it has come to the point where the human mind just shuts down, all the functionalities of the brain that render people sane and civilized people cease and they are reduced to monkeys getting excited when they see a banana or sheep mindlessly following a herder. Heck, you don't even have to be famous or relevent anymore, just pretend! That's what Thomas Elliot did with the help of some friends.

This random guy conducted a social experiment where he fooled an entire mall into thinking he was a celebrity! Within minutes he was bombarded by security and a mob of giggily girls who climaxed over his every move. His name started trending on Twitter and ignited a tweeting firestorm of people reporting that "Thomas Elliot is AT THE MALL!" Who?

What's truly fascinating (or terribly sad) is the self-fulfilling prophecy he tested out, "If you pretend that you're famous and act like you're famous...you WILL BE famous"

I guarantee you will end up in tears watching this. Either by laughing so hard at the absurdity of it all or just crying from witnessing the complete decay of the human condition. Enjoy and maybe if you have 45 minutes to spare, head to your local mall to recreate this abortion.
